NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ -- On July 24, 2024, a Manhattan federal court sentenced Bevelyn Beatty Williams, a 33-year-old pro-life advocate to almost three and a half years in prison for preaching the Gospel outside a New York Planned Parenthood abortion clinic and blocking the entrance.

"Bevelyn was guilty of telling women the truth.  Abortion kills children," said Gardner.  "According to scripture children are a blessing.  Psalm 127:3 clearly states that children are a heritage from the Lord.  They are indeed a gift and a reward from Him and should never be flushed down toilets or discarded in trash bins."

“It’s hard to believe that Bevelyn Beatty Williams tried so hard to give God’s word of love and light to women and girls in need – and is now denied mothering her own young child,” said King.  “As we remember my Uncle Martin Luther King’s powerful, I Have a Dream speech, let us also realize the dream was -- and is for all of GOD’s children, born and unborn.  How can the dream survive if we kill the children?”

Bevelyn was convicted for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (the FACE ACT) in protest of individuals seeking to obtain or provide abortions, according to the Department of Justice.

King and Gardner believe that Willams is being persecuted for standing for her pro-life Christian beliefs and are calling for her pardon and release today.

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.”

Matthew 5:10-12 KJV
